Volunteer opportunity
The Bradford Window Dresser group is putting out a call for more members. Our team runs the annual Bradford WindowDresser community workshop, which will be returning to the Bradford Fire Station Classroom this Fall. The week-long workshop is attended by customers and volunteers from Bradford and surrounding towns. We make "WindowDresser" insulating window inserts following procedures invented and supported by the WindowDressers non-profit organization of Maine. There are five key roles our local team fills: Overall Coordination, Volunteer/Food coordination, Measuring windows,/ completing orders, Outreach (advertising both for customers and volunteers for the current season's workshop) and Shift Supervision. If you are interested in bringing your talents to the team, there is room to contribute in any of these areas. You may take on full responsibility or be guided by an existing member, whichever suits your intentions. The work can be quite fulfilling, because it makes a concrete contribution to toward increasing winter comfort, saving money and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. We are a part of the Bradford Climate and Energy Commission, but you needn't live in Bradford to participate. We collaborate with other WindowDresser groups in the area and encourage you to apply to one of these if preferable (the full list of local community builds is at https://windowdressers.org/community-workshops/). To join the Bradford team, get more details by contacting Susanna Lewis at [email protected] ("0" in the email address is the number zero). Or call 802-222-3460 (landline, please leave a voice message). Thank you!
